Use functions to model relationships between quantities.
8.F.B.4 Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities.
Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a
relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph.
Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it
models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values.
8.F.B.5 Describe qualitatively the functional relationship between two quantities by analyzing
a graph (e.g., where the function is increasing or decreasing, linear or nonlinear). Sketch a
graph that exhibits the qualitative features of a function that has been described verbally.
Analyze functions using different representations.
F-IF.C.7 Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand
in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases.★
a. Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima.
b. Graph square root, cube root, and piecewise-defined functions, including step
functions and absolute value functions.
F-IF.C.8 Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal
and explain different properties of the function.
a. Use the process of factoring and completing the square in a quadratic function to show
zeros, extreme values, and symmetry of the graph, and interpret these in terms of a
context.
F-IF.C.9^39 Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way
(algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given
a graph of one quadratic function and an algebraic expression for another, say which has the
larger maximum.
Interpret expressions for functions in terms of the situation they model.
F-LE.B.5^40 Interpret the parameters in a linear or exponential function in terms of a context.★
Summarize, represent, and interpret data on two categorical and quantitative variables.
S-ID.B.6^41 Represent data on two quantitative variables on a scatter plot, and describe how
the variables are related.
a. Fit a function to the data; use functions fitted to data to solve problems in the context
of the data. Use given functions or choose a function suggested by the context.
Emphasize linear, quadratic, and exponential models.
b. Informally assess the fit of a function by plotting and analyzing residuals.

MP.1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Mathematically proficient
students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry
points to its solution. They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals. In this
